Fingerprint yes! Flash lineage15.1 to your P20

Hello,everybody,since no developers working on custom rom for P20,we have to flash a treble rom,or,like you see here,flash a P20pro rom.
After several days trying,I finally suggest you to flash the lineage15.1 rom ported to P20 pro from Luk.
Now,it's time to escape from Huawei EMUI，out of the limit(like more apps background running).
What's the good thing?
Fingerprint yes! Fast charge yes! Full screen apps yes! Even stock camera(from Androlark).
Any bugs?
NFC(not working at all) ,wifi-hotspot(you can use USB tethering instead).
Here is a guide for flashing:
Before you go,make sure a unlocked bootloader,and twrp for installing gapps/migisk/stock camera.And you must do a full factory reset,it's very important ,otherwise the rom can't boot.
A flashable system.img link(extract from Luk's P20 pro rom)
One-click ADB
Flash it using ADB tool.
Type the following line:
Code:
fastboot erase system
Code:
fastboot -u flash system p20-lineage15.1-system.img
Then reboot.
If you want to flash gapps,after boot worked,turn the "Developer options"-"Advanced restart",then reboot to twrp,wipe data cache dalvik again(it's necessary,if not ,you will see the apps forceclosing again and again)
Cheers:highfive:
Thanks @LuK1337 again

Reserved for Q&A.

Thanks for the thread man !
But with the upcoming update of Pie, i will wait a little bit before jumping on a new rom than the EMUI, otherwise i would already installed it.

Finally able to boot on the rom.
If you have trouble for install : try a different version of adb, and after a full factory reset, go to twrp and wipe dalvik, cache and internal storage again then flash.

How come hotspot is broken here but not on the official Treble Lineage 15.1 ?

That's right bro,sorry I didn't help you in time yesterday,I'm in China,there's a time difference between us.
Upload an ADB tool I'm using,for those who need it.
One-click ADB

Thanks for the tool
- Fingerprint working
- Root & magisk supported.
- Stock Camera mod also works
- Always on display (but i really don't like it and no stock setting to disable it completely, only hide it when you turn off the screen)
So far the bugs i encounter are:
- No notch support (but icons are spread between the edge of the status bar, so only the speed meter is hidden in my case)
- The home button only works for fingerprint sensor if you have virtual button enabled.
-NFC ? (i don't use it)
Here's some screenshots to show the notification system's behavior (yes, they are expandable from the notification drawer and lockscreen :good: )

I attach a link for a simple script tool that I have used which is very useful for creating flashable system images from system.new.dat.br and system.transfer.list files.
Extractor 3.5
I have attached this so that people can make their own system image files when the Linage OS rom is updated rather than wait for someone to upload their own image files.
Instructions
1. Extract Extractor folder from attached zip.
2. Extract system.new.bat.br and system.transfer.list from rom zip file.
3. Place files in folder labelled "place_for_supported_files_here".
4. Run Extraktor_EN.cmd
5. Select option 9.
6. Use the system.new.img and flash using fastboot as detailed in the original post.

Exact i checked the same options, but when you receive a notification, it still displays the notification on the ambiant display mode... When you turn on the phone or touch it, you activate the lockscreen.
With that black screen, i miss notifications if the phone is laying on the table for exemple ...

That's the problem,no pie rom for p20 can boot except emui9 beta at the moment. I tried all I could find, including aosp pie for Honor v10,which is based on emui8.1 vendor,can boot on p20 pro.

Lineage OS on Moto Z2 Force xt1789-06 ?

Hi there,
after unbricking the device I'm able to start TWRP on it. Using fastboot, ADB can't connect, even if TWRP ADB Sideloading is started - strange. Lineage OS 16 can by installed from ZIP after copying it on the Device using explorer.
But neither LOS nor TWRP can't be installed to last on the device.
Before I managed it to get at least TWRP permanently on the phone, but after playing around even this won't work.
Has anyone ever successfully installed LOS on a M3M-Version of the bootloader?
Is there way to get back to stock and then flash LOS?
How to get a real clean restart?
Thanks a lot!

Since I'm just talking with myself in this thread: From the TMO Stock I managed to install TWRP to last on the device. But anytime I install the LOS ROM and restart the phone stays black and is bricked.
Any ideas? Just to be not so alone?

Heyyo, if you're installing LineageOS, please ensure you're following the steps in the LineageOS wiki as that is what I followed to go from stock to LineageOS and it worked perfectly.

Yes, especially
- install os, reboot and THEN gapps and stuff
- if u don't have both slots active (for example, if u flash stock and then immediately go for los) u will have problems , unless u use the pre-los zip, u can find it here somewhere

@Dany XP that is not advised. As the wiki mentions
Sideload the LineageOS .zip package:
On the device, select “Apply Update”, then “Apply from ADB” to begin sideload.
On the host machine, sideload the package using: adb sideload filename.zip
(Optionally): If you want to install any additional add-ons, run adb reboot sideload, then adb sideload filename.zip those packages in sequence.
NOTE: If you want Google Apps on your device, you must follow this step before booting into LineageOS for the first time!

The reason is when your device boots to system, it is at that point that it should "handshake" with the Google Play servers or there's a risk of stability issues with the Google Play services.

I can't believe it's installed and running after all. I used the pre-los ZIP installed, LOS 16 nightly and opengapps pico...
BUT there is a little problem:
The phone recognizes one and two SIM card correctly, but displays empty signal icons.
Anytime I wan't to make a call it says I should disable flight mode to make calls, but flightmode IS of course disabled... tried to disable and reenable it, cleared dalvik und cache restarted etc.
So: Does anybody know, how to resolve this? Seems to be kind of missing carrier support...

"One and two Sim cards..." That means u r NOT in tmo right? U must be on -05 or 06 I don't remember...

Erm the issue i have with ChinaRom is that I cant use my own homescreen launcher... even with root I cant bypass it... so I have to be on Global ROM... but china variant with global rom causes boot loop.... and seeing that you are using the only TWRP available i think the results are the same...

Bricked my China Rom Phone
I just bricked my phone - story here:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8-pro/help/help-to-unbrick-china-redmi-note-8-pro-t4004681
So does anyone have any idea how I can unbrick? Should I REM out the antirollback check lines in flash_all.bat?
Any help is much appreciated! Thank you!

My phone came with the Global EU (EEA) version ROM, i have flashed Global (MI) version. Will this method still work or will it cause bootloop? I don't want to brick my device so asking in advance. I was lucky to just get stuck in bootloop with my previous try using a different recovery.
P.S. I used MiFlash Tool and flashed the ROM through Fastboot.

Hey Pritish1998,
I must admit, I was a little leery, after reading all the other threads about installing twrp and rooting and the horror stories they contained. Well, your instructions seemed fairly simple. I followed them EXACTLY... and I lost my ass, everything got wiped, my imei, everything!!!
Totally kidding, everything worked perfectly, I followed your steps exactly as stated. I did not loose any data, nothing, every app, all my downloads, everything is still on my phone. THANK YOU SO MUCH!
Also, TWRP, is still installed, didn't get wiped out by the stock recovery. I have root, and oh, I am on MIUI Global, on the United States phone I ordered off of Amazon. More Specifically, MIUI Global 11.0.1.0(PGGMIXM) Android Version 9 PPR1.180610.011. I received the MIUI 11 update about 3 days ago, and was still waiting the 160 some hours out for the bootloader unlock. I just got the bootloader unlocked about 3 hours ago. Went through numerous instructions and posts and this one seemed to make the most sense. I wasn't sure about MIUI 11 working, but fudge it, I thought I would just return the phone if I had a problem, but nope, you're instructions were clear and precise and I followed them to a tee and its working great and I have Magisk and did the safetynet update, and I'm all good.
I haven't updated Magisk to 20.1 though. Didn't want to press my luck.
Thanks so much bro, really, thank you.

this procedure worked as well on an indonesian 11.0.1. rom!!!
thx!

Hello good day! I have a question about TRWP:
1) Is it safe to install this TRWP f I am on 11.0.1.0 PGGEUXM?
Has anyone else done it since rom EEA instead of Gobal (MI)?
Thank you

Thank you very much, magisk works perfectly

No need for caps lock. We can read.
It was initially a double post he just edited it later and changed it to a guide, which is fine.
It's the same procedure like initial Chinese twrp which was and is already posted here.

How I can flash a GSI ROM for Redmi Note 8 Pro?

Hello everyone, Im trying to understand how to flash a GSI img ROM (I want to try AOSP stock, or Havoc OS) but, I saw some posts and looks like is a bit hard to do.
I had TWRP installed (unofficial begonia) and magisk installed.
some informations I found: this device is just A slot supported
What exactly I need?
Orange Fox recovery?
Before flash need to disable something in recovery?
A arm64 slot IMG?
And gapps?
What are the steps?
Im waiting your answer

So far with my personal experience trying to flash Lineage 17 GSI on my RN8Pro and have had no luck. Lost baseband and both imei #'s in the process too (still trying to figure out how to restore).

Finally was lucky!
Flash LR Team TWRP:
https://mega.nz/#!B75xWQQQ!8DQdy09luHihxCziRX7ywUWkAwmAahjnWOQDgHxcTPA
Enable debugging and make sure computer has permission to use
On command promp adb reboot bootloader
fastboot flash recovery twrp.img
fastboot reboot (immediately disconnect phone and hold volume up)
In twrp go to advanced and Select "Close AVB2.0" swipe to confirm
Go back to twrp home -> Wipe -> Format
Flash gsi
And presto!
I just flashed Lineage 17 GSI as of now I wouldn't recommend it. Fixing to flash ASOP 10 GSI from phhusson see if it is any better!
Also as a favor since I lost baseband and imei for my phone could you please create a backup through twrp of your nvram and nvdata and PM it to me?
If you need any help just pm me!

Off the bat, Bluetooth did not work it just kept giving a Bluetooth has stopped message. Didn't have face unlock. Screen would suddenly flash as if display were damaged and would suddenly freeze when opening stock apps. And a few other things I don't remember as I already flash off of it.

That sounds good. Thanks for sharing. Did you use GSI since you flashed or did you restore MIUI?

Generic System Image. Basically a single ROM image that should technically work in any device running Android 8.1 or newer. It contains the generic AOSP (Pure android) source.

So people were able to flash LOS GSI on their Redmi Note PRO?
No specific thread for this?

Disabling HW Overlays means that your GPU is the only thing that will handle all of the graphics on your phone. If this is not on in some GSI ROMs the screen will flicker when it's about to go to sleep and at other random times. It can be accessed in Developer options.
Additionally, as this is a GSI made to work on many different phones, the proportions on the screen are off when you first install it. On Havoc, all of the resizing options are in Havoc Settings. In other ROMs without customization options, there are ADB commands that can resize your ROM. Specifically, the problems I initially experienced were involving the status bar icons and clock only partially being on the screen.

That sounds good. Thanks for sharing. Did you use GSI since you flashed or did you restore MIUI?

I am actually using the GSI right now. I didn't restore MIUI because I just did not like it. I think I'll stay on this GSI. Again, after some modifications in Settings, the ROM I'm using works near perfectly.
The cameras, of course, are kind of messed up though. No matter what camera app I use I cannot access the 64MP camera and anything other than the camera app that came with the GSI (which is pretty bad) randomly flickers the screen while I'm taking a picture or recording a video, even after disabling HW Overlays in Developer Options. Maybe could be fixed by flashing a third party camera app as a system app.
Other than that, no problems whatsoever.

Hello everyone, Im trying to understand how to flash a GSI img ROM (I want to try AOSP stock, or Havoc OS) but, I saw some posts and looks like is a bit hard to do.
I had TWRP installed (unofficial begonia) and magisk installed.
some informations I found: this device is just A slot supported
What exactly I need?
Orange Fox recovery?
Before flash need to disable something in recovery?
A arm64 slot IMG?
And gapps?
What are the steps?
Im waiting your answer

I don't really mind the cameras not working at a 100% tbh since i don't use them that much. However did you try GCam on GSI or any other API2 camera app?

Yeah, but the screen flashes randomly on them.
CameraMX works great with the cameras that it does support. CameraF5-V crashes randomly. GCam for RN8P can only take photos, and only supports 2 cameras. I think that some of these issues would be fixed if I flashed then as system apps, because the stock camera app works fine, albeit the fact that it's just not a very good camera app.

Question How to downgrade from miui 13 to miui 12.5.8 enhanced edition?

Hello all,
Miui 13 and Android 12 are a mess, full of bugs, how can downgrade?

i think you can try it with miflash

You can try xiaomi.eu ROM, i couldn't find any bug

I don't have any issues with mine, yet. What are your problems?

Hi,
I ask also for the same thing, and i have bugs on miui13 (dark mode more option does not show any apps and there is no access to battery optimisation to stop optimise an app, the system update app is always on white mode even the dark mode is enabled and many more...)
Can we downgrade with xiaomi.eu downloaded rom and select it in advanced update?
Is it safe? I don't want to brick my phone.

My biggest issue with MIUI 13 so far is that auto brightness is messed up. All of a sudden it sets brightness to max, even when auto brightness is off. This triggers every time i open game turbo inside a game.

It's still the same. And its not just only when i open game turbo, it happens from time to time randomly, game turbo is just the more noticeable one.

Really?
I'm using xiaomi.eu 13.
I always encounter UI lags same as MIUI 13.
Does anyone know how to fix them?

1. Unlock bootloader
2. Download MIUI 12.5.8 Enhanced Edition .tar/.zip file
3. Flash using bootloader/recovery
There is another option to flash via MiFlash, which allows you to lock bootloader again, if needed.

You need to download "fastboot" ROM's (They are bigger then recovery ROM) and you can flash your ROM via fastboot (you dont need TWRP, OFOX, etc...) you're doing everything via miflash and you can lock bootloader with FASTBOOT ROM.
You can find original ROM here: https://xiaomifirmwareupdater.com/miui/courbet/
